Abstract
A barbell rack includes first and second support members arranged for supporting one end of a barbell, first and second foot members with first and second holder parts fixedly attached to respective foot member and which are arranged for tilting the first and second support members within the respective holder part. The barbell rack further includes first and second eccentric each pivotably arranged at the respective holder part and hingedly connected to a respective bracket which respective bracket is fixedly attached to the respective support member for the tilting of the same within the respective holder part.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedThe invention claimed is:
1. A barbell rack comprising:
a first support member arranged for supporting one end of a barbell in a using position of the barbell, the first support member having an upright position relative a substrate, wherein the first support member comprises an elongated first tube and an elongated second tube, wherein the first tube is telescopically arranged relative the second tube,
a first foot member, arranged to support the first support member on the substrate,
a first holder part fixedly attached to the first foot member and protruding upwards from the first foot member, and which first holder part at least partially encloses a lower part of the second tube of the first support member, and further the first holder part is arranged for allowing a tilting of the first support member within the first holder part,
a second support member arranged for supporting one end of the barbell in the using position of the barbell, wherein the second support member is arranged opposite the first support member at a distance, the second support member having an upright position relative the substrate, wherein the second support member comprises an elongated first tube and an elongated second tube, wherein the first tube is telescopically arranged relative the second tube,
a second foot member, arranged to support the second support member on the substrate,
a second holder part fixedly attached to the second foot member and protruding upwards from the second foot member, and which second holder part at least partially encloses a lower part of the second tube of the second support member, and further the second holder part is arranged for allowing a tilting of the second support member within the second holder part,
a first eccentric pivotably arranged at the first holder part of the first support member and pivotable around a first pivot point and further hingedly connected to a first bracket which first bracket is fixedly attached to the second tube of the first support member, wherein the first eccentric upon pivoting is arranged to tilt the first support member within the first holder part,
a second eccentric pivotably arranged at the second holder part of the second support member and pivotable around a second pivot point and further hingedly connected to a second bracket which second bracket is fixedly attached to the second tube of the second support member, wherein the second eccentric upon pivoting is arranged to tilt the second support member within the second holder part.
2. The barbell rack according to claim 1 , wherein the first foot member and the second foot member are connected to each other by a connecting frame part.
3. The barbell rack according to claim 2 , wherein a distance between the first foot member and the second foot member is adjustable by that the connecting frame part is telescopically arranged relative to a part of the first foot member and/or a part of the second foot member.
4. The barbell rack according to claim 1 , wherein a first handle is fixedly connected with a first end to the first eccentric and further comprising a second end which is a free end distal from the first end of the first handle, and a second handle is fixedly connected with a first end to the second eccentric and further comprising a second end which is a free end distal from the first end of the second handle.
5. The barbell rack according to claim 1 , wherein the first bracket comprises an elongate first groove and the first eccentric comprises a first pin, which first pin is arranged a distance from the first pivot point, wherein the first pin is arranged in the first groove and moveable therein when pivoting the first eccentric, and the second bracket comprises an elongate second groove and the second eccentric comprises a second pin, which second pin is arranged a distance from the second pivot point, wherein the second pin is arranged in the second groove and moveable therein when pivoting the second eccentric.
6. The barbell rack according to claim 1 , wherein the first eccentric is arranged at an upper end of the first holder part and the upper end of first holder part comprises a first cut out in which the first bracket of the first support member is arranged to run, and the second eccentric is arranged at an upper end of the second holder part and the upper end of the second holder part comprises a second cut out in which the second bracket of the second support member is arranged to run.
7. The barbell rack according to claim 1 , wherein the first holder part comprises at least one inclined wall enabling the tilting of the first support member within the first holder part, and the second holder part comprises a least one inclined wall enabling the tilting of the second support member within the second holder part.Cited by (0)
